GRACE-SMITH CEMETERY

Little history known about burials in Grace-Smith Cemetery. Thirty eight grave sites were found and moved by the The Corps of Engineers in 1953. Of the 38 graves found, only 15 names were identified. Grace-Smith Cemetery was moved when Lake Lewisville, Denton County, Texas was enlarged. Information on this cemetery is from files of The Corps of Engineers. The cemetery was moved to Little Elm Cemetery in Little Elm, Texas along with three other abandoned cemeteries. The existing Little Elm Cemetery was at the present location with the exception of graves moved from lower part of the cemetery to a higher location. Burials in the Grace-Smith Cemetery are located at the North end of Little Elm Cemetery.
